Life Extension Esophageal Guardian, 60 Vegetarian Chewable Tablets (Pack of 2)

Has made a dramatic difference in what I can eat. Not cheap but worth every penny.

I was on 40-80 mg omeprazole pretty much daily for the past 7 years. I was diagnosed with GERD and my symptoms, without consistent use of medication, were severe. I have tried various other dietary, lifestyle and supplemental remedies, with either little or no noticeable relief. I initially used this product to try and taper down my daily dose of omeprazole. The purported mechanism of action made sense to me. After that proved so effective, I decided to continue using this product and dropped the omeprazole completely. I have been symptom free for over five months. Even if my symptoms ultimately return, I feel it is a win to even spend part of the year without needing to rely on prescription medication. I hope Life Extension never discontinues this product.

Very helpful for my Gerd problem

These work for Gerd and acid reflux IF you do it right. Right before bed I take Mylanta first. I wait 5 minutes to make sure that went to my stomach then I chew one tablet. (2 is too much for me). I make sure to have water near by and chew and drink water at the same time. That's important because the water reacts with the ingredients to form a barrier to protect your stomach. It really does help. I only give it 4 stars because 1. The taste is the most horrible sour/bitter taste ever. It's really hard for me to handle the taste. 2. The instructions could be better for this product. 3. I think it would be better if the wafers were half the size they are so people could adjust the dose better. I usually alternate between these plus Mylanta and the Gaviscon Extra Complete from Great Britain. Not the version from the U.S. the Great Britons version is like a combination of this product and Mylanta. And it tastes WAY better. However, it's not as strong. So, if I feel I are too late or had a stressful day, I use this product. My last complaint is that often it only gets me 3/4 through the night. That's better than nothing. But I can't handle chewing more a 3am.

MUY BUEN PRODUCTO PARA LA ACIDEZ ESTOMACAL Y SIN CALCIO

Trying to get away from pharmacy drugs with all the side effects. This is one that doesn't work for me. Good luck

I really struggle with the bicarbonate “bite” of these so I dread having to take them. However, the berry flavor is good and, most importantly, they work when I’m having reflux issues. I have eosinophilic esophagitis so I’m used to a host of swallowing and reflux issues and I’ve taken pretty much every form of antacid - supplement and pharmaceutical - that is made; these work! Plain and simple.

I bought this product because I have been suffering from awful acid reflux over the last couple of months. It kept me from getting a good night's sleep. When taken according to directions, it works great at stopping acid from reaching my esophagus. It's been a godsend.
